      True story.

      I was at the supermarket and I was about to pick up a bottle of premium steak sauce. The guy walking by me says that I should look at the label; it’s just ketchup and horse radish and I can make it better at home. I check and he’s right. I thank him and go on.

      A few minutes later I see the same guy buying bottled ice tea.

            which mint? i was just at the nursery and they had an entire hoop house full of mint.

            i also discovered how much fun it is to say hoop house and i’ve been annoying my wife with it. HOOP HOUSE!

              lol! I go to the local butcher shop that has a rack of Salma [TM] products and get ‘mint’

              Technically, it’s yerba buena, which is Spanish for ‘good herb’

              And Cheech and Chong notwithstanding, it’s not marijuana.

              A quick search says it’s neither peppermint nor spearmint, it’s a unique herb.

              Again, not marijuana

              Also, I thought ‘hoop house’ was a typo for ‘hot house.’

                I feel kind of like owly the door right now
